Gods

"'While God was busy creating the universe, Time was busy creating the Time Construct. And as that was happening, Death molded the Afterlife. The only one forging the world was Mother Nature, but the poor girl couldn't do it alone. At that time, the Angels weren't at full power so she made us, the Gods. We helped forged the Earth with her. But then the time came when the Angels were at full power and she no longer needed us. But she was merciful and let us keep the Old World while she and the Angels made the New World.' - Anansi explaining the origins of the Gods."The Gods are a race of higher beings that once ruled over the Old World. They were worshiped by the peoples of the Old World until it eventually collapsed, partly due to the Norse War Ragnarok occurring.

History
As revealed by the African God Anansi, the history of the Gods is as follows: As the Primordial Beings were busy with creating their own parts of the universe, Mother Nature created the Old World but she needed help and the Angels couldn't do it. So she created the Gods to help her and they lived in the Old World after Mother Nature left to make the New World with the Angels.

Things were going well until it began to collapse and the Gods were forced to move to the New World. The Angels didn't mind this so long as the Gods stayed out of their way..
